Between the two of us, I'm the one who likes women.
Anyway, I watched the first episode. Enjoyed it. Though it was hard to watch a 9-year-old get addicted to pills.
Also no chess thread complete without Ben Finegold.

Yeah, the first episode really makes the '50s look bad -- unlike a lot of 1980s films like Back to the Future which glorifies the era as charming and fun.
I've thought of what life would have been like if I was born in a different decade -- both before and after I was actually born. The 1950s kinda seems like a crappy time to have grown up. Medical and dental technology was pretty bad then, too. We take it for granted nowadays how far we've come in these areas. Even the 1970s were already substantially better.
Fantastic show thus far, really enjoying it.
I'm 5.5 episodes in.
Will probably watch the final 1.5 episodes tonight or tomorrow.
Enjoying it, but here are a few small criticisms:
Overall it was well done -- at least what I've watched so far. I wish poker had an equivalent movie, but they've all been trash aside from Rounders.
